“I don’t think it’s very easy to come to Italy, and not to a club, but to the national team. he’s a young man, he needs to get to know his teammates, and that’s not easy,” Mancini told reporters. We’ve got a lot of faith in him but we need to give him a bit of time.”

The Argentina-born striker made his mark against England in his first game for the Azzurri.

If Retegui continues his goal-scoring form in Argentina it will not be long before some of Europe’s biggest clubs look to bring the young star to the continent. He has bagged six goals in eight Liga Profesional games and the likes of “I can say that he looks like Batistuta when he arrived in Italy. But ten minutes into the second half Retegui found himself in space in the England box and fired low past Jorden Pickford to halve the deficit for his side. He has qualities that we currently lack,” Mancini told reporters before the game. Retegui, who represented Argentina at U19 and U20 level, is eligible to play for Italy through his maternal grandmother.
